Trajectory Estimations Using Smartphones

IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics, 2015
This paper investigates whether the smartphones' built-in sensors can accurately predict future trajectories for a possible implementation in a vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) system. If smartphones could be used, vehicles without the V2V/V2I technology could use them to tap into the V2V/V2I infrastructure and help to ...

Using the smartphone as oscillation balance

The Physics Teacher, 2020
The dynamics of a spring pendulum is an important topic in introductory experimental physics courses at universities and advanced science courses in secondary school education. Different types of pendulum setups with smartphones were proposed to investigate, e.g., the gravitational acceleration, to measure spring constants, or to illustrate and verify ...

Gait recognition using smartphone

2016 IEEE International Carnahan Conference on Security Technology (ICCST), 2016
Gait recognition on smartphones could be considered as one of the most user-friendly biometric modalities. The main benefit of gait recognition is that it is an unobtrusive biometric modality, since it requires little interaction with the user. Users would only have to carry the sensor device and walk as normally.

Characterizing web use on smartphones

Proceedings of the SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, 2012
The current paper establishes empirical patterns associated with mobile internet use on smartphones and explores user differences in these behaviors. We apply a naturalistic and longitudinal logs-based approach to collect real usage data from 24 iPhone users in the wild. These data are used to describe smartphone usage and analyze revisitation patterns

The business risks of using smartphones

Network Security, 2015
It seems that a lot of businesses are still unaware of the risks involved with employees using their own smartphones for business purposes. The truth is that even 'wiped' smartphones can actually retain a lot more information than their owners realise, from call and web browser history to photographs and files.

Ambulant Cognitive Assessment Using a Smartphone

Applied Neuropsychology: Adult, 2013
The focus of neuropsychology is to understand the relationship between assessment results and everyday cognitive abilities and disabilities. However, the generalizability of traditional neuropsychological tests to real-life behaviors, the ecological validity, is compromised by the test environment, among other things. Neuropsychological tests are often

Driver behavior profiling using smartphones

16th International IEEE Conference on Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITSC 2013), 2013
The proliferation of smartphones and mobile devices embedding different types of sensors sets up a prodigious and distributed sensing platform. In particular, in the last years there has been an increasing necessity to monitor drivers to identify bad driving habits in order to optimize fuel consumption, to reduce CO2 emissions or, indeed, to design new

INTERACTIVE USE OF DISEASE MODELS USING A SMARTPHONE

Acta Horticulturae, 2015
Fruit tree canker (Neonectria ditissima syn. Nectria galligena Bres.) is an important fungal disease in apple (Malus × domestica Borkh.). Leaf fall is the predominant infection period for this disease. However, in The Netherlands and Belgium, no historical data on leaf fall of apple are available. In practice, collecting leaf fall data is a problem. An

What a smartphone is to me: understanding user values in using smartphones

Information Systems Journal, 2013
AbstractThe objective of this study is twofold. First, it aims to investigate the various values users achieve with smartphones, which is a form of user‐empowering information technology (IT). The other objective is to introduce a means‐end chain approach into IT‐user studies.
